Installation

  • For run the POC, enter the following commands. It is neccesary to create a new folder to clone the different forks for the corresponding projects.
mkdir POC
cd POC
git clone https://github.com/arturoeanton/poc-krakend.git
git clone https://github.com/arturoeanton/lura.git
git clone https://github.com/arturoeanton/gin.git

cd poc-krakend
go mod vendor
go run .

In the case of the gin pull request, the modification is the following. This modification allows to reset search tree at gin level.

func (e *Engine) ResetTrees() {
	e.trees = make(methodTrees, 0, 9)
}

Hot reload

touch configuration.json

Examples

  • Based on this initial configuration file we will make some examples.
{
	"version": 2,
	"name": "Express API Gateway",
	"endpoints": [
		{
			"endpoint": "/pokemon",
			"method": "GET", 
			"backend": [
				{ 
					"host": ["https://pokeapi.co"],
					"method": "GET",
					"url_pattern": "/api/v1/pokemon/ditto"
				}
			]
		},
		{
			"endpoint": "/type/{id}",
			"method": "GET", 
			"backend": [
				{ 
					"host": ["https://pokeapi.co"],
					"method": "GET",
					"url_pattern": "/api/v1/type/{id}"
				}
			]
		}
	]
}
  • Once the application is running, modify the file and change the "url_pattern" like this for the pokemon endpoint.
{
	"version": 2,
	"name": "Express API Gateway",
	"endpoints": [
		{
			"endpoint": "/pokemon",
			"method": "GET", 
			"backend": [
				{ 
					"host": ["https://pokeapi.co"],
					"method": "GET",
					"url_pattern": "/api/v1/pokemon"
				}
			]
		},
		{
			"endpoint": "/type/{id}",
			"method": "GET", 
			"backend": [
				{ 
					"host": ["https://pokeapi.co"],
					"method": "GET",
					"url_pattern": "/api/v1/type/{id}"
				}
			]
		}
	]
}

  • The endpoint change on hot while the application is running.
